This is a list of collections, not short stories. edit

There seems to be some confusion. In my mind, the Agatha Christie bibliography should list all her original works (keyword original), not collections. A separate page can list her collections, which could be this page. It seems that whomever authored these pages (who did a great job, not complaining about that), did not understand the that users will be looking for original works and few looking for collections. For this reason, I think both pages (this one and her bibliography) should be reworked. I am presently creating a list here of her short stories and which collection they can be found in. I believe this should be in a section at the bibliography. Then a list in reverse order, which is what this page is all about, should be about the collections. This page needs renaming because the focus is on the collections, not the stories. Perhaps List of short stories collections by Agatha Christie MagnoliaSouth ^(talk) 18:34, 26 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

I totally agree! And by focussing on the collections one misses stories:

- The Man who knew (secret notebooks) - The incident of the Dog´s Ball (From the notes of Captain Arthur Hastings O.B.E.) (secret notebooks) - The Case of the Caretaker´s Wife (alternate version) (secret notebooks) - The Capture of Cerberus (original version) (secret notebooks)
